          As you (probably) know, I'm a big Saint Roi fan.... we've seen him come out and look really good, and we're all excited... He has an official rating of 151?

          Salider 161
          Sharjah 164
          Epatante is 162 (+7)


          Just puts things in perspective a little?

          • I really like Saldier and been disappointed he’s had niggles to stop him running at the previous 2 festivals, well 2 years ago more than a niggle.

            If he turns up fit and well, potentially winning the Morgiana on route he’ll be second fav or fav depending what Epatante does. His price is exactly what you want especially for a mullins horse who definitely looks good enough to win a champion hurdle on what he’s done on the track imo.

              If people are hoping for big things from CPS at 5/1 for the Champion Chase, despite his injury record,
              then
              20/1 or more for Saldier with his injury record does look a much better pick.

                Not so sure. Chancun heads the market whilst there are 4/5 Infront of Saldier currently in the Churdle market.

                  I'd have to agree with you SW. Niether have been to Chelt so you have that worry with both. But their best pieces of form (IF taken at face value) put them both in the top 1/2 spots in their respective divisions.

                      Wonder why. Are gigginstown going to consolidate to less trainers as they wind down the operation?. Any paper reports

                            Pacemaker for Aba. That's my unofficial theory.

                              No. Notified in the Racing Post as that because they picked up on the Morgiana entry.

                                Change of ownership now showing in RP database, was still Gigginstown when I checkes 15 minutes ago. Cheap enough for a fun horse in good quality races albeit rising 10
